Awful nights sleep - aching shoulder and another issue. However, scored 95% on a literacy and numeracy test for a job offer at a chocolate factory so... I'd have aced it if I'd have slept better ha ha
Axe / lever work
never gets easy but added time - seriously hurts where it sits in my right hand.
2HP - volume
3 x 11 d/d reps with working weight. Last set best.

Pick axe leverage work
Damn this is B-R-U-T-A-L. Even with warming up with the axe I use the next two efforts went straight into 'ouch that hurts' territory
2HP - volume
better as I did more
3 x 10 reps - very r/p style.

Good company (thanks for the treats inc little note book) followed by:
Lever axe work
added weight to my set up - equates to top weight for event
slightly lighter warm ups then axe plus 2-kilos and IM loops + clip to hold them on (about 6kg) x 3 working sets. Roughly same time each hand. All brutal.
2HP - vol
NB: never warm up just straight in at working weight
80.2-kilos approx x 8 reps, 10 rp reps (v close together) and 13 d/d reps... hard as f**k

Lever axe work
I'll weigh what I have and may need to add weight to it. I'm guessing it's a pound or two under.
3 x sets increasing in time with each hand. The last left handed effort was very nice
2HP
80.2-kilos or so x 6, 10 and then 12 reps

Leverage / axe handle work
Used my axe (held at the very end) and as steady as possible with a good pick up at all times and slow walked a length or so of my gym (about 41 feet length ways wall to wall)
L/H: 3 x 1 lengths
R/H: 2 x 1 length and 1 x 1.5 lengths (last one).
I can either add weight (I'll add a bit) or do more lengths at a steady handed and slow pace.
2HP
80.2-kilos (no warming up) x 19 reps (rp) in 90-seconds. Damn! lol
